Tanko made the remarks during an interview on ‘Prime Time’, a programme broadcast on Arise Television, stressing that Obi would make the announcement personally.
“A lot of people are waiting for Peter Obi to make a decision on which party he will be contesting through. That means he is wanted in Nigeria and even around the world. So, we will let Obi let the cat out of the bag by himself,” Tanko said.
He added that Obi is collaborating closely with a coalition that has produced a political party.
“He has been part of it. He has contributed to it. Whenever he wants to make his own pronouncement, it is going to be something that everybody will be glad and happy about because he is a team player,” Tanko said.
Tanko further highlighted Obi’s commitment to national welfare, describing him as a leader who seeks to ensure Nigeria’s freedom and address challenges caused by leaders with poor intentions.
